Shen Xi didn’t reply, but Gu Chen continued, “I have a family background, wealth, and status that others can’t reach. I’m not that pitiful. Instead, many people envy me, look up to me, and want to be me.”

The more Gu Chen said this, the more Shen Xi could feel the desolation and pain in Gu Chen’s heart, as well as the loneliness of being at the top.

Shen Xi gently pulled down Gu Chen’s hand that was covering her eyes. She looked at Gu Chen with a hint of struggle and hesitation, but before she could speak, Gu Chen stopped her.

Gu Chen’s eyes were a little evasive and panicked. He quickly said, “Let’s change our equipment. These things are not suitable for us who are happy at the moment.”

Shen Xi swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. She nodded silently and then took the skating equipment that Gu Chen handed over.

Shen Xi didn’t have much ice skating experience. She had gone to the north with Zhao Yuan and the others before.

Looking at Shen Xi clumsily putting on warm clothes for herself, Gu Chen went forward and gently tidied Shen Xi’s clothes.

Shen Xi felt that the distance between the two of them was a little too close. She subconsciously wanted to retreat, but Gu Chen did not let go. Shen Xi only felt his neck tighten and was immediately pulled back by Gu Chen.

Gu Chen said a little helplessly but patiently, “Xi, don’t move. I’ll put it on for you in a while.”

Shen Xi could only stand still and let Gu Chen help her with her clothes. However, when she looked up slightly, she saw Gu Chen’s long curly eyelashes hanging down seriously. Coupled with his fair skin and exquisite facial features, his posture was a little seductive.

Shen Xi immediately turned her gaze elsewhere and muttered to himself, “What the hell? Why is a grown man so good-looking?”

Throughout the whole process of helping Shen Xi tidy up her clothes, Gu Chen did not have any ambiguous behavior or movements, which still made Shen Xi feel that Gu Chen was seducing someone.

Seeing Shen Xi’s face turn away from the corner of her eye, Gu Chen’s lips curled up slightly. The snicker was like a strange fox.

After putting on the safety helmet for Shen Xi, Gu Chen said, “It’s done!”

Shen Xi immediately took two steps back and distanced herself from Gu Chen.

Then, Shen Xi turned her suspicious gaze to Gu Chen. She suspected that Gu Chen did it on purpose, but when she saw Gu Chen’s bright eyes pretending to be innocent, Shen Xi secretly withdrew her thoughts of dealing with Gu Chen.

Gu Chen just turned around with a smile and quickly put on his clothes and equipment. Then, he put on his helmet and turned to Shen Xi. He reached out his hand and said, “Let’s go. Let’s go out.”

Shen Xi glanced at Gu Chen’s outstretched hand and snorted twice. She turned around and walked towards the door with a disdainful look.

Gu Chen looked at the back of Shen Xi’s angry head and shook his head with a doting smile. Then, he followed behind Shen Xi.

Gu Chen wasn’t lying. Even though he hadn’t skated for more than ten years, Gu Chen was just a little uncomfortable at the beginning. Later on, he almost flew all over the field.

Shen Xi was a little stunned as she looked at Gu Chen who was flying in front of him. She could not explain her feelings.

The moment Shen Xi was a little absent-minded, Gu Chen had already slowed down. When Shen Xi reached her side, Gu Chen said loudly, “What do you think of me?”

“The well-deserved Little Prince of the Ice Arena.” Shen Xi nodded and said loudly.

Shen Xi was not exaggerating. With his tall and straight figure, coupled with his elegant skating posture, Gu Chen was already the focus of the entire ice rink.

Many girls beside him were secretly glancing at Gu Chen. Shen Xi believed that if she wasn’t by Gu Chen’s side, there might be a few girls who didn’t know how to ice skate coming over to ask for advice and contact information in the next second.

Perhaps it was because he had received praise from Shen Xi, that Gu Chen was especially happy. While Shen Xi was resting at the side, he floated out again.

The show-off wanted to show off his posture, like a peacock that had been spreading its tail to woo Shen Xi.

However, not long after Gu Chen slid out, two girls came forward and asked Shen Xi carefully, “Hello, may I ask if that boy is your boyfriend?”

The girl pointed in Gu Chen’s direction and asked nervously.

Shen Xi shook her head honestly. Then, she thought for a moment and said, “No, we just…Friend.”

The girl in front of her suddenly became happier. She asked Shen Xi, “Can you give me his contact information?”
